Hi, it's
Anne. I'm so happy that all of you went and saw my movie this summer. Can you believe I was sharing scenes with
Meryl Streep? I was four months old
when she won her second Oscar! She's so accomplished... such an amazing woman. My character "Andy" had such a terrible job in that movie working for her. Acting isn't as easy as people think but, honestly, I've never had a job half as tough as that. I'm not going to be that
actress that tries to convince you that it's difficult to get naked with Jake Gyllenhaal. Please!
No,
my nightmare job is starring in
The Princess Diaries III. I'm not in that place anymore. Every night I thank God (I call him "
Ang Lee", ha ha) for rescuing me. Because there's more to me than tiaras. There really is.
So: I want to pose another one of those "
would you rather" questions that Nathaniel likes. My topic is 'Nightmare jobs from the summer movies'
Would you rather...?1.
Be the copy editor for The Daily Planet? All mythic comicbook crap aside: Lois Lane seems like a terrible writer, doesn't she? Could you even read a weepy essay on "Why the World Doesn't Need Superman" without giggling? I couldn't. I'd rather curl up with Ayn Rand. Now, there's a writer.
2.
Work at that fast-food Chicken place that the Little Miss Sunshine family orders from daily? Those fast food people are probably making minimum wage and then they have to listen to Richard's "don't be a loser" speech every time he comes in? Oh, you know he gives it to them, poor things.
or3.
Apply the gel to the camera lenses on World Trade Center? I'm sorry but how goopy were those shots of Maria Bello? It's like they used a huge spatula to "frost" the lens. I bet the crew guy had to wear rubber gloves there was so much of it. Whenever that movie cut away to her I thought it was a commercial break and she was going to start brewing some Maxwell House. I don't understand it at all because she hardly needs it...such a beautiful woman.
OK. I have to go read a huge stack of scripts. (Oh, you thought
The Devil Wears Prada only worked wonders for Emily Blunt's career? Think again) But answer this "would you rather" in the comments or add your own nightmare film job! Nathaniel will be back later today.
Bye.
